Scientific paper

The applicability of ab-initio molecular electrostatic potentials to examine the protonated adducts of interstellar molecules is tested on the series: CO, CS, SiO, SiS, N2, H2 and CO2. The stable isomers HCO+ (linear), HCS+ (linear), SiOH+ (linear), SiSH+ (bent), HN2+ (linear), H3+ (triangular), and HOCO+ (bent) are correctly predicted. The method used provides rapid and inexpensive semi-quantitative results particularly useful for a first selection of the stable protonated entities in chemistry models involving a large number of proton acceptors.
